Mythic Game Master Emulator

Book Description
Mythic Game Master Emulator Create dynamic role-playing adventures without preparationFor use as a supplement with other systems NOTE: This product provides the Game Master Emulation rules found in Mythic, a product that contains emulation rules and a full, universal role playing game. Mythic Game Master Emulator is for those who do not want the universal role-playing rules, but just the game master emulator at a reduced price. Mythic Game Master Emulator is a supplement meant to be played with your favorite role-playing games. Most Role-Playing Games operate under the principle that there are players and there is a Game Master. The GM prepares all the details of an adventure, and then "runs" the players through that adventure. This usually requires a great deal of preparation on the part of the GM. Mythic is different in that it requires no preparation from the GM. Mythic adventures are meant to be played off the cuff, with perhaps a few minutes of brainstorming to come up with the initial setup. Mythic can also be played entirely without a GM. The same mechanics in Mythic that allow a GM to run an adventure without preparation also allows a group of players to do without the GM. In a Mythic adventure, the GM (or players without a GM) can start an evening's entertainment with about five minutes of preparation. As the adventure unfolds, the GM is just as surprised by the twists and turns as the players are. There are various ways in which Mythic can be used: No GM, multiple players Players decide on an opening scenario, and perhaps a few details or two, and Mythic takes it from there. All action is decided through the asking of yes/no questions and the application of logical principles. By answering questions, the adventure moves along, with the occasional random event throwing players a curve ball. The action is broken into scenes, just like in a movie, to keep everything straight. No GM, one player Mythic can be used to go solo. Solo play in Mythic works the same as group play. You're just alone. One GM, any number of players For those who like to be a GM, we have something for you, too. The same tools that allow Mythic to automatically generate adventures on the fly without a GM also work with a GM. This means very little to zero preparation, if you don't want to prepare. Simply create an opening scenario (hey, you can come up with that on the drive over!) and follow Mythic as it guides you along. Mythic will throw in its own twists and turns, so the GM will be just as shocked as the players.

Pages : 26
Book Description
OSR Solo rules These rules are intended to allow you to play an OSR, in this case meaning 0D&D, B/X style games, without a Dungeon Master. game you will get using these rules will be a sandbox-style adventure, you will not need to do any Dungeon Master [DM] style preparation although having a few stock NPCs or appropriate levels would be helpful. No DM? The normal cycle of play is that the DM describes the scene and asks what do you do? The players describe their actions. The DM describes the effects of those actions and the cycle repeats. In solo play there is just the single character and no DM. You start by imagining your character in the game setting and play them through all the social interactions, all the NPCs and events that would normally come up. At some point you will reach a point where you would normally ask your DM for more information. Are there any guards? Are there any ways out? What can you hear? At this point the solo rules come into play. You pitch your question in a Yes/No format. The solo rules will then return an answer to your question much like a Magic 8 Ball toy. It is then down to you and your improv. skills to decide what does this answer mean right now? Often the first thing that comes into your head is the answer to go with. If you just got yes and no answers things would get boring quite quickly. These rules are designed to throw up twists and turns into your character's story. is a perfect way to learn a new game, test your first adventures and going beyond just making characters when you are first getting to know the rules

Book Description
Too Many Games! Too many games get bought and never played. With these rules, you will be able to play Stars Without Number without a GM. Grab the rulebook off the shelf. Make yourself a character and start playing. This book is an interactive set of solo rules that guide your improvisation and acts as a GM for your adventures. In place of the common lists of words, this booklet uses visual icons to inspire you. Unleash your adventurous spirit and explore stars without number. Solo is a perfect way to learn a new game, test your first adventures and going beyond just making characters when you are first getting to know the rules. Stars Without Number Solo Adventures Stars Without Number [SWN] is one of the most popular OSR role-playing games ever released. While it is very similar to a lot of dungeons & dragons derived games it diverges when it comes to the skill system. Outside of combat, SWN is mostly driven by 2d6 rather than the ever-present d20 so common in other OSR games. If you have never solo played an RPG before I will ease you into that as it is a different experience from any other form of role-playing. You Need This Book Because all role-playing is improvisation. If you are a GM and your players go off course, the improv tool in this book will help you create exciting adventures on the fly. How This Book is Organised All the rules in this book are at the front. You then get three useful record-keeping pages which you may print multiple copies of for your own use. Finally, there are ten pages of 'game icons'. These you may also print off if you prefer to have them on paper.
